Schultz on his show Wednesday night was talking about the president seeking fast-track trade authority from Congress, arguing it would hurt workers. He said some Republicans were opposing the president on the issue.

“Of course Republicans, they’re afraid of me. They don’t want to talk to me,” Schultz said as an aside. “But whatever, I’ll talk to them if they want to talk about it, because it is bad for workers.”

After her tweet, Coulter elaborated in an email to Newsbusters that MSNBC hosts in general won’t have her on their shows.

“These MSNBC hosts like Rachel [Maddow] and Ed love posing as macho Republican-slayers,” Coulter wrote, according to the conservative site. “I’ve been begging to come on their shows for years now, but they’re all apparently too afraid of a 99 lb girl. (Or any conservative who can put 2 sentences together.)”

Schultz has famously called out Republicans for not engaging with him before, including a public, insult-filled back-and-forth with Fox News host Sean Hannity.
